Many of the date functions write into fixed-size buffers.
This is a minor pain, as we have to take special
precautions, and frequently end up copying the result into a
strbuf or heap-allocated buffer anyway (for which we
sometimes use strcpy!).
Let's instead teach parse_date, datestamp, etc to write to a
strbuf. The obvious downside is that we might need to
perform a heap allocation where we otherwise would not need
to. However, it turns out that the only two new allocations
required are:
1. In test-date.c, where we don't care about efficiency.
2. In determine_author_info, which is not performance
critical (and where the use of a strbuf will help later
refactoring).

git fast-export mytag |

We have a global pointer pack_data pointing to the current
pack we have open. Inside end_packfile we have two new
pointers, old_p and new_p. The latter points to pack_data,
and the former points to the new "installed" version of the
packfile we get when we hand the file off to the regular
sha1_file machinery. When then free old_p.
Presumably the extra old_p pointer was there so that we
could overwrite pack_data with new_p and still free old_p,
but we don't do that. We just leave pack_data pointing to
bogus memory, and don't overwrite it until we call
start_packfile again (if ever).
This can cause problems for our die routine, which calls
end_packfile to clean things up. If we die at the wrong
moment, we can end up looking at invalid memory in
pack_data left after the last end_packfile().
Instead, let's make sure we set pack_data to NULL after we
free it, and make calling endfile() again with a NULL
pack_data a noop (there is nothing to end).
We can further make things less confusing by dropping old_p
entirely, and moving new_p closer to its point of use.

When we see a file change in a commit, we expect one of:
1. A mark.
2. An "inline" keyword.
3. An object sha1.
The handling of spaces is inconsistent between the three
options. Option 1 calls a sub-function which checks for the
space, but doesn't parse past it. Option 2 parses the space,
then deliberately avoids moving the pointer past it. Option
3 detects the space locally but doesn't move past it.
This is confusing, because it looks like option 1 forgets to
check for the space (it's just buried). And option 2 checks
for "inline ", but only moves strlen("inline") characters
forward, which looks like a bug but isn't.
We can make this more clear by just having each branch move
past the space as it is checked (and we can replace the
doubled use of "inline" with a call to skip_prefix).

Fast-import does a lot of parsing of commands and
dispatching to sub-functions. For example, given "option
foo", we might recognize "option " using starts_with, and
then hand it off to parse_option() to do the rest.
However, we do not let parse_option know that we have parsed
the first part already. It gets the full buffer, and has to
skip past the uninteresting bits. Some functions simply add
a magic constant:
char *option = command_buf.buf + 7;
Others use strlen:
char *option = command_buf.buf + strlen("option ");
And others use strchr:
char *option = strchr(command_buf.buf, ' ') + 1;
All of these are brittle and easy to get wrong (especially
given that the starts_with call and the code that assumes
the presence of the prefix are far apart). Instead, we can
use skip_prefix, and just pass each handler a pointer to its
arguments.

It's a common idiom to match a prefix and then skip past it
with a magic number, like:
if (starts_with(foo, "bar"))
foo += 3;
This is easy to get wrong, since you have to count the
prefix string yourself, and there's no compiler check if the
string changes. We can use skip_prefix to avoid the magic
numbers here.
Note that some of these conversions could be much shorter.
For example:
if (starts_with(arg, "--foo=")) {
bar = arg + 6;
continue;
}
could become:
if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &bar))
continue;
However, I have left it as:
if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) {
bar = v;
continue;
}
to visually match nearby cases which need to actually
process the string. Like:
if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) {
bar = atoi(v);
continue;
}

Fast-import shares code between its command-line parser and
the "option" command. To do so, it strips the "--" from any
command-line options and passes them to the option parser.
However, it does not confirm that the option even begins
with "--" before blindly passing "arg + 2".
It does confirm that the option starts with "-", so the only
affected case was:
git fast-import -
which would read uninitialized memory after the argument. We
can fix it by using skip_prefix and checking the result. As
a bonus, this gets rid of some magic numbers.

Sparse issues 68 errors (two errors for each main() function) such

git.c:510:5: error: symbol 'mingw_main' redeclared with different type \
(originally declared at git.c:510) - different argument counts
The errors are caused by the 'main' macro used by the MinGW build
to provide a replacement main() function. The original main function
is effectively renamed to 'mingw_main' and is called from the new
main function. The replacement main is used to execute certain actions
common to all git programs on MinGW (e.g. ensure the standard I/O
streams are in binary mode).
In order to suppress the errors, we change the macro to include the
parameters in the declaration of the mingw_main function.
Unfortunately, this change provokes both sparse and gcc to complain
about 9 calls to mingw_main(), such as the following:
CC git.o
git.c: In function 'main':
git.c:510: warning: passing argument 2 of 'mingw_main' from \
incompatible pointer type
git.c:510: note: expected 'const char **' but argument is of \
type 'char **'

functions need to be declared with the same prototype, we
change the declaration of the 9 main functions, thus:

When we read a fast-import line like:
M 100644 :1 foo.c
we point the local object_entry variable "oe" to the object
named by the mark ":1". When the input uses the "inline"
construct, however, we do not have such an object_entry.
The current code is careful not to access "oe" in the inline
case, but we can make the assumption even more obvious (and
catch violations of it) by setting oe to NULL and adding a
comment. As a bonus, this also squelches an over-zealous gcc
-Wuninitialized warning, which means we can drop the "oe =

In cases where the setting and access of a variable are

silence the warning by initializing the variable to itself,

Modern versions of gcc are smart enough to get this right,
going back to at least version 4.3.5. gcc 4.1 does get it

The syntax for the use of mark references in fast-import
demands either a SP (space) or LF (end-of-line) after
a mark reference. Fast-import does not complain when garbage
appears after a mark reference in some cases.
Factor out parsing of mark references and complain if
errant characters are found. Also be a little more careful
when parsing "inline" and SHA1s, complaining if extra
characters appear or if the form of the dataref is unrecognized.
Buggy input can cause fast-import to produce the wrong output,
silently, without error. This makes it difficult to track
down buggy generators of fast-import streams. An example is
seen in the last line of this commit command:
commit refs/heads/S2
committer Name <name@example.com> 1112912893 -0400
data <<COMMIT
commit message
COMMIT
from :1M 100644 :103 hello.c
It is missing a newline and should be:
[...]
from :1
M 100644 :103 hello.c
What fast-import does is to produce a commit with the same
contents for hello.c as in refs/heads/S2^. What the buggy
program was expecting was the contents of blob :103. While
the resulting commit graph looked correct, the contents in
some commits were wrong.

As the fast-import manual explains:
The value of <path> must be in canonical form. That is it must
not:
. contain an empty directory component (e.g. foo//bar is invalid),
. end with a directory separator (e.g. foo/ is invalid),
. start with a directory separator (e.g. /foo is invalid),
Unfortunately the "ls" command accepts these invalid syntaxes and
responds by declaring that the indicated path is missing. This is too
subtle and causes importers to silently misbehave; better to error out
so the operator knows what's happening.
The C, R, and M commands already error out for such paths.

Change the skeleton implementation of i18n in Git to one that can show
localized strings to users for our C, Shell and Perl programs using
either GNU libintl or the Solaris gettext implementation.
This new internationalization support is enabled by default. If
gettext isn't available, or if Git is compiled with
NO_GETTEXT=YesPlease, Git falls back on its current behavior of
showing interface messages in English. When using the autoconf script
we'll auto-detect if the gettext libraries are installed and act
appropriately.
This change is somewhat large because as well as adding a C, Shell and
Perl i18n interface we're adding a lot of tests for them, and for
those tests to work we need a skeleton PO file to actually test
translations. A minimal Icelandic translation is included for this
purpose. Icelandic includes multi-byte characters which makes it easy
to test various edge cases, and it's a language I happen to
understand.
The rest of the commit message goes into detail about various
sub-parts of this commit.
= Installation
Gettext .mo files will be installed and looked for in the standard
$(prefix)/share/locale path. GIT_TEXTDOMAINDIR can also be set to
override that, but that's only intended to be used to test Git itself.
= Perl
Perl code that's to be localized should use the new Git::I18n
module. It imports a __ function into the caller's package by default.
Instead of using the high level Locale::TextDomain interface I've
opted to use the low-level (equivalent to the C interface)
Locale::Messages module, which Locale::TextDomain itself uses.
Locale::TextDomain does a lot of redundant work we don't need, and
some of it would potentially introduce bugs. It tries to set the
$TEXTDOMAIN based on package of the caller, and has its own
hardcoded paths where it'll search for messages.
I found it easier just to completely avoid it rather than try to
circumvent its behavior. In any case, this is an issue wholly
internal Git::I18N. Its guts can be changed later if that's deemed
necessary.
See <AANLkTilYD_NyIZMyj9dHtVk-ylVBfvyxpCC7982LWnVd@mail.gmail.com> for
a further elaboration on this topic.
= Shell
Shell code that's to be localized should use the git-sh-i18n
library. It's basically just a wrapper for the system's gettext.sh.
If gettext.sh isn't available we'll fall back on gettext(1) if it's
available. The latter is available without the former on Solaris,
which has its own non-GNU gettext implementation. We also need to
emulate eval_gettext() there.
If neither are present we'll use a dumb printf(1) fall-through
wrapper.
= About libcharset.h and langinfo.h
We use libcharset to query the character set of the current locale if
it's available. I.e. we'll use it instead of nl_langinfo if
HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H is set.
The GNU gettext manual recommends using langinfo.h's
nl_langinfo(CODESET) to acquire the current character set, but on
systems that have libcharset.h's locale_charset() using the latter is
either saner, or the only option on those systems.
GNU and Solaris have a nl_langinfo(CODESET), FreeBSD can use either,
but MinGW and some others need to use libcharset.h's locale_charset()
instead.

It is useful to be able to rewind a check-summed file to a certain
previous state after writing data into it using sha1write() API. The
fast-import command does this after streaming a blob data to the packfile
being generated and then noticing that the same blob has already been
written, and it does this with a private code truncate_pack() that is
commented as "Yes, this is a layering violation".
Introduce two API functions, sha1file_checkpoint(), that allows the caller
to save a state of a sha1file, and then later revert it to the saved state.
Use it to reimplement truncate_pack().

This fixes the bug uncovered by the tests added in the previous two patches.
When an existing notes ref was loaded into the fast-import machinery, the
num_notes counter associated with that ref remained == 0, even though the
true number of notes in the loaded ref was higher. This caused a fanout
level of 0 to be used, although the actual fanout of the tree could be > 0.
Manipulating the notes tree at an incorrect fanout level causes removals to
silently fail, and modifications of existing notes to instead produce an
additional note (leaving the old object in place at a different fanout level).
This patch fixes the bug by explicitly counting the number of notes in the
notes tree whenever it looks like the num_notes counter could be wrong (when
num_notes == 0). There may be false positives (i.e. triggering the counting
when the notes tree is truly empty), but in those cases, the counting should
not take long.

Change check_ref_format() to take a flags argument that indicates what
is acceptable in the reference name (analogous to "git
check-ref-format"'s "--allow-onelevel" and "--refspec-pattern"). This
is more convenient for callers and also fixes a failure in the test
suite (and likely elsewhere in the code) by enabling "onelevel" and
"refspec-pattern" to be allowed independently of each other.
Also rename check_ref_format() to check_refname_format() to make it
obvious that it deals with refnames rather than references themselves.

'reset' command makes fast-import start a branch from scratch. It's name
is kept in lookup table but it's sha1 is null_sha1 (special value).
'notemodify' command can be used to add a note on branch head given it's
name. lookup_branch() is used it that case and it doesn't check for
null_sha1. So fast-import writes a note for null_sha1 object instead of
giving a error.
Add a check to deny adding a note on empty branch and add a corresponding
test.

'reset' command makes fast-import start a branch from scratch. It's name
is kept in lookup table but it's sha1 is null_sha1 (special value).
'tag' command can be used to tag a branch by it's name. lookup_branch()
is used it that case and it doesn't check for null_sha1. So fast-import
writes a tag for null_sha1 object instead of giving a error.
Add a check to deny tagging an empty branch and add a corresponding test.
